Coco Gauff has advanced to the final of the China Open by beating Paula Badosa 4-6, 6-4, 6-2. It was the third consecutive match that she had to rally from a set down.

The 20-year-old American, who triumphed at last year’s US Open but has faced challenges lately, is on the hunt for her second trophy of the year and the eighth of her career. Gauff parted ways with coach Brad Gilbert following a disappointing run at this year’s US Open, where she exited in the last 16 amidst numerous double faults.
